This recipe is an amazing winter treat for all those burger lovers out there who miss a warm, delicious sandwich. It is simple to make, has great flavor and texture and can be eaten with veggies or between two slices of raw bread.

Mushrooms are fleshy, nutrient dense and low in calories, making these burgers a great option for people who are watching their weight. Moreover, mushrooms contain more vitamin D than any other vegetable, and are a great addition to the diet during winter days.

Mushrooms offer a wide range of nutrients, including essential amino acids, vitamin B, as well as minerals like copper, iron, selenium, manganese, magnesium and phosphorus. They also contain a special amino acid called ergothioneine, which is found only in mushrooms and yeasts and that functions as strong antioxidant.

The sunflower seeds are added both for their fiber, protein and essential fats, as well as for their texture and taste. I often add sunflower or pumpkin seeds to my raw vegan recipes, as I find it much easier to incorporate them in my main meals than eat them as they are.

Portobello Mushroom Cap Burgers In The Raw

I just got around to making these and they are phenomenal! I think I will increase the amount of 'shrooms next time. The recipe yielded 7 good-sized 'burgers', and they were a little on the loose side, so I had to plop them on the sheet with a spoon to form round mounds. I also added cumin, oregano, fennel, and a dash of vegan Worcestershire sauce. The smelled great as they were concentrating. I don't have a dehydrator so I set my oven to the lowest temp and propped the door open; it took the same amount of time as per instructions. Thanks for a keeper :)
